  Oh totally, Nader is the piece of shit here…

  In response to Nader’s criticisms, GM attempted to sabotage Nader’s reputation. It “(1) conducted a series of interviews with acquaintances of the plaintiff, ‘questioning them about, and casting aspersions upon [his] political, social, racial and religious views; his integrity; his sexual proclivities and inclinations; and his personal habits’; (2) kept him under surveillance in public places for an unreasonable length of time; (3) caused him to be accosted by girls for the purpose of entrapping him into illicit relationships; (4) made threatening, harassing and obnoxious telephone calls to him; (5) tapped his telephone and eavesdropped, by means of mechanical and electronic equipment, on his private conversations with others; and (6) conducted a ‘continuing’ and harassing investigation of him.”

  He went on to lobby for consumer rights, helping drive the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the passage of the Clean Air Act, among others

  You’re fucking delusional.

    Whoa, dude, personal attack much?

    Two things can be true. The car manufacturers are massive pieces of shit as most corporations are, but also Nader is a piece of shit…

    He picked a target and fudged the data until it said what he wanted. Just because he was doing it to promote something good doesn’t make it right.
